  • The Fishery for Northern Shrimp (Pandalus Borealis) Off West Greenland, 1970–2019
    NOT TO BE CITED WITHOUT PRIOR REFERENCE TO THE AUTHOR(S) Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization Serial No. N7008 NAFO SCR Doc. 19/044 NAFO/ICES PANDALUS ASSESSMENT GROUP—November 2019 The Fishery for Northern Shrimp (Pandalus borealis) off West Greenland, 1970–2019 by AnnDorte Burmeister and Frank Rigét Greenland Institute of Natural Resources Box 570, 3900 Nuuk, Greenland Abstract The Northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) occurs on the continental shelf off West Greenland in NAFO Divisions 0A and 1A–1F in depths between approximately 150 and 600 m. Greenland fishes this stock in Subarea 1, Canada in Div. 0A. The species is assessed in these waters as a single stock and managed by catch control. The fishery has been prosecuted over time by four fleets: Greenland small-vessel inshore; Greenland KGH offshore; Greenland recent offshore, and Canadian offshore. Catch peaked in 1992 at 105 000 tons but then decreased to around 80 000 tons by 1998 owing to management measures. Increases in allowed takes were subsequently accompanied by increased catches. The logbook recorded catches in 2005 and 2006, around 157 000 tons, were the highest recorded. Since then catches has decreased to a recent low level in 2015 at 72 256 tons. In the following years, both TACs and catches increased, and the total catches was 94 878 tons in 2018. The enacted TAC for Greenland in 2019 is set at 103 383 tons and a TAC of 1 617 tons were set for Canada, by the Greenland Self-government. The projected catch for 2019 is set at 100 000 tons.

Several hundred adult specimens of crabs and lobster from two tunicate- infested estuaries and Northumberland Strait were examined for epibionts. Small patches of Botrylloides violaceus were found on rock crabs examined from Savage Harbour and a small colony of Botryllus schlosseri was found on one lobster from St. Peters Bay. Lobster and lady crab collected in Northumberland Strait had no attached colonial tunicates but small sea grapes (Molgula sp.) were found attached on the underside of 5.5% of the rock crab and on 2.5% of lobster collected in Northumberland Strait in August 2006.

  • Shrimp: Wildlife Notebook Series
    Shrimp Five species of pandalid shrimp of various commercial and subsistence values are found in the cool waters off the coast of Alaska. Pink shrimp (Pandalus borealis) are the foundation of the commercial trawl shrimp fishery in Alaska. Pinks are circumpolar in distribution, though greatest concentrations occur in the Gulf of Alaska. Ranging from Puget Sound to the Arctic coast of Alaska, the humpy shrimp (P. goniurus) is usually harvested incidentally to pink shrimp. In some cases, however, the humpy constitutes the primary species caught. Both pink and humpy shrimp are usually marketed as cocktail or salad shrimp. Known for its sweet flavor, the sidestripe shrimp (Pandalopsis dispar) is also caught incidentally to pinks; however, there are small trawl fisheries in Prince William Sound and Southeast Alaska which target on this deeper water species. The coonstripe shrimp (Pandalus hypsinotis) is the prized target of various pot shrimp fisheries around the state. Coonstripe shrimp can be found from the Bering Sea to the Strait of Juan de Fuca while sidestripes range from the Bering Sea to Oregon. Spot shrimp (P. platyceros) is the largest shrimp in the North Pacific. Ranging from Unalaska Island to San Diego, this species is highly valued by commercial pot fishers and subsistence users alike. Most of the catch from the sidestripe, coonstripe, and spot fisheries is sold fresh in both local and foreign markets. General description: Pandalid shrimp can be characterized by a long, well-developed spiny rostrum and are medium to large in size. The body is generally slender and there are five pairs of "swimmerets" located on the underside of the abdomen.

Longhurst (1970:258) called it the principal product of the prawn fisheries of the northwestern Atlantic, being concentrated off Greenland, while in more recent years also more to the south fisheries for the species have started, e.g., in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the Bay of Fundy and the Gulf of Maine (as far south as Gloucester, Mass.). There is an intensive fishery around Iceland and a most important one off the Norwegian coast. In the Kattegat and Skagerak it is fished for by Danish trawlers.

  • Pandalus Platyceros Range: Spot Prawn Inhabit Alaska to San Diego
    Fishery-at-a-Glance: Spot Prawn Scientific Name: Pandalus platyceros Range: Spot Prawn inhabit Alaska to San Diego, California, in depths from 150 to 1,600 feet (46 to 488 meters). The areas where they are of higher abundance in California waters occur off of the Farallon Islands, Monterey, the Channel Islands and most offshore banks. Habitat: Juvenile Spot Prawn reside in relatively hard-bottom kelp covered areas in shallow depths, and adults migrate into deep water of 60.0 to 200.0 meters (196.9 to 656.2 feet). Size (length and weight): The Spot Prawn is the largest prawn in the North Pacific reaching a total length of 25.3 to 30.0 centimeters (10.0 to 12.0 inches) and they can weigh up to 120 grams (0.26 pound). Life span: Spot Prawn have a maximum observed age estimated at more than 6 years, but there are considerable differences in age and growth of Spot Prawns depending on the research and the area. Reproduction: The Spot Prawn is a protandric hermaphrodite (born male and change to female by the end of the fourth year). Spawning occurs once a year, and Spot Prawn typically mate once as a male and once or twice as a female. At sexual maturity, the carapace length of males reaches 1.5 inches (33.0 millimeters) and females 1.75 inches (44.0 millimeters). Prey: Spot Prawn feed on other shrimp, plankton, small mollusks, worms, sponges, and fish carcasses, as well as being detritivores. Predators: Spot Prawn are preyed on by larger marine animals, such as Pacific Hake, octopuses, and seals, as well as humans.

  • RECORD of a MALE SNOW CRAB, CHIONOECETES OPILIO with TWO EXTRA FINGERS on the LEFT CHELA INTRODUCTION Naturally Occurring Abnorm
    RECORD OF A MALE SNOW CRAB, CHIONOECETES OPILIO WITH TWO EXTRA FINGERS ON THE LEFT CHELA BY HAJIME MATSUBARA1) Laboratory of Aquatic Genome Science, Department of Aquatic Biology, 196 Yasaka, Abashiri, Hokkaido 099-2493, Japan ABSTRACT Amalesnowcrab(Chionoecetes opilio) with two extra fingers on the left chela was caught from Abashiri, Hokkaido, Japan. These extra fingers arose from the inner proximal portion of the original immovable finger. Morphology of these extra fingers is quite similar to those of the normal fixed finger of the propodus and the dactyl. Previously, such abnormal cheliped has not been recorded in this crab species. INTRODUCTION Naturally occurring abnormal chelae have been reported in the lobsters Homarus americanus (cf. Faxon, 1881; Cole, 1910; Przibram, 1921), Neph- rops norvegicus (cf. Shelton et al., 1981), the crabs Cancer pagurus (cf. Prz- ibram, 1921), Geryon affinis granulatus (cf. Okamoto, 1991), the mud crab Scylla spp. (cf. Fuseya & Watanabe, 1999), the intertidal mud crab Macroph- thalmus japonicus (cf. Suzuki, 1963), the Japanese swimming crab Charybdis japonica (cf. Nakatani & Matsuno, 2004), the hair crab Erimacrus isenbeckii (cf. Suzuki & Odawara, 1971), the crayfish Astacus fluviatilis (cf. Bateson, 1894; Przibram, 1921) and the American crayfish Procambarus clarkii (cf. Nakatani et al., 1992, 1997). Recently, a male snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) with two extra fingers on the left chela was caught. Such shape has previously not been recorded, and its morphology is herein described. 1) e-mail: [email protected] © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2011 New frontiers in crustacean biology: 139-143 140 CRM 015 – Akira Asakura et al.

Whitakera, Ingrid Kvalvika, Birthe Vanga, Runar Gjerp Solstada, Marte R. Thomassen b, and Sten I. Siikavuopioa aNofima AS, Muninbakken, Breivika, Tromsø, Norway; bDepartment of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, University Hospital North Norway, Tromsø, Norway ABSTRACT KEYWORDS Red king crab and snow crab have both become important species for the Norwegian seafood Catch; live storage; industry. Since the first commercial harvest of red king crab in 2002 and of snow crab in 2012, the processing; occupational Norwegian seafood industry has developed new technology and knowledge for handling these exposure; by-products; species. This includes new fishing gear, conditions for live storage and processing, handling of by- market products, and entrance into new markets. The total Norwegian quota for red king crab increased from 220 metric tons in 2002 to 2350 metric tons in 2017, with a free-red king crab harvesting zone to the west of the quota-regulated area to prevent further expansion of the crab. At present, there is no established quota for snow crab. In 2016, a volume of about 5300 metric tons of snow crab was landed in Norway. In 2016, the export of red king crab and snow crab in Norway amounted to 529 million and 338 million Norwegian Kroner, respectively. Based on regular surveys of crab populations in the Barents Sea, it is assumed that the volumes red king crab and snow crab will remain steady and increase, respectively.
